Mike didn't try hitting the guy that was actually disrespectful to him because he feels so bad about Werner. :(

This felt like more of a closing episode to "Winner".

Maybe thats the reason for the two-episode premiere.

Gilligan and Co are great at casting scummy people. I immediately hated that guy who recognized Saul at the beginning.

In the previous scams Kim pulled, she knew it was wrong to do, but after the fact she usually got this rush of excitement and ended up kissing Jimmy etc.

Tonight was different. After the fact, she had the complete opposite emotional response: crippling guilt. This swap is a threshold for her.
